  • Patent number: 9851263
    Abstract: A portable heating chamber system is adapted and configured for use in performing pyrometric proficiency testing. Within an enclosing structure is an array of thermocouples which function as temperature sensors. Heat is generated within the chamber by one or more electric resistive heat sources, and heated air is circulated by one or more electric fans. Outside the enclosing structure are a temperature controller and a data acquisition device, which applies correction factors to the temperature data and determines uncertainties to assess testing proficiency.
